You can change this any time using the dropdown in the navigation bar.

CloudCannon serves a 404 page when it can’t find a file on your site. Create your own 404 page to blend in with the rest of your site.

To create a custom 404 page:

  1. Create a file called 404.html at the root of your site
  2. Add the content you want CloudCannon to serve

Set the permalink of your page to /404.html if you are using Jekyll and non-default permalinks.
